Facebook doesn't have circles. All Facebook relationships are built on a friend request, which Google+ doesn't have. You can't add strangers to a Facebook list; they are not the same thing.
- zaidf 15y agoI actually dislike that about Google+. In the process of accommodating strangers, they have completely gone away from the concept of friending. May be this is why my Google+ stream is a lot more similar to my twitter than fb.
- MatthewPhillips 15y agoI think Circles makes more sense. How you see others is not necessarily how they see you.
- jedberg 15y agoI hate the fact that the relationships aren't 2 way on G+. Today my wife was going through people to add on G+, and she kept asking me, "Who is this person, it says they are friends with you." And I had no idea who they were. They were people that had added me to a circle, but I never added back. Yet Google tells other people that we know each other. They make no differentiation between a 2 way relationship and a one way. This looks like spam heaven to me.
- zaidf 15y agoYeah, I guess it is google's attempt to make a go at twitter AND facebook. Unfortunately they are very likely to fail at both.
